Dog eye movements are slower than human eye movements

Human identification using eye movements

Eye movements are functional during face learning.

In a free viewing learning condition, participants were allowed to move their eyes naturally as they learned a set of new faces. In a restricted viewing learning condition, participants remained fixated in a single central location as they learned the new faces. Recognition of the learned faces was then tested following the two learning conditions. Eye movements were recorded during the free vi...

Eye Movements, Strabismus, Amblyopia, and Neuro-Ophthalmology Directional Asymmetries in Human Smooth Pursuit Eye Movements

Citation: Ke SR, Lam J, Pai DK, Spering M. Directional asymmetries in human smooth pursuit eye movements. Invest Ophthalmol Vis Sci. 2013;54:4409–4421. DOI:10.1167/iovs.12-11369 PURPOSE. Humans make smooth pursuit eye movements to bring the image of a moving object onto the fovea. Although pursuit accuracy is critical to prevent motion blur, the eye often falls behind the target. Previous studi...

Blink-related eye movements.

Eye movements that accompany a blink have been measured in human subjects by the use of a visual-persistence method. With straight-ahead binocular viewing, each eye typically rotates nasalward and downward 1-2 deg during the closing phase of a blink. These eye movements are more rapid than the lid movements as recorded by high-speed photography. In fact, the eyes have already completed their in...

Eye movements of stutterers.

As a consequence of recent inquiries into the brainstem activity of stutterers, saccades and pursuit were evaluated in stutterers and their matched normals while silent and talking. No ocular motor instabilities or aberrations caused by speech were found. Saccadic latencies and gains for the stutterers were normal, but peak velocities were higher and durations were shorter. This finding is cons...
